Re: O-Like 50mW 532nm "Power Rock"

Good start for a review. We like to see more beamshots. Laser beams are visually stronger when they shine towards your camera. And try the focus of the camera on the laser, not on the computer behind it :D

UPDATE!! need help, probably the battery is needing charge(at least lets hope so) becouse from a second to another whenever I turned the laser on, it worked for like 1 second, and it then shutdown itself. to a point it didn't even turn on.
As we speak the battery is charging, im hoping its due the battery..

If this is a known laser problem please help me

Green. is this bad?

also i think this is happening


Q: Why, after my DPSS laser suddenly stopped working, do I see just a dim red light coming from the aperture?

A: DO NOT LOOK INTO THE APERTURE!!!!!!! This dim red light is actually being produced by an extremely powerful infrared laser. Since IR light is invisible, all we can see is the dim red light. Don't be fooled by the dimness, even in a 5mW DPSS laser the IR output is guaranteed to be at least 200mW, which is more than enough to fry your eyes. The reason that you can see this is because some of the internal parts of the laser have gone out of alignment..

IF THE INTERNALS ARE NOT ALIGNED, HOW CAN I MAKE THEM ALIGNED?????


WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?

Are you sure that there is a red light coming out of the aperture ? Can you take a pic of it. Most cameras these days, can pick IR light.
